I think it should be possible to add a new parameter for a protocol:
bidirectional (true or false).

If true, packets received in 'think' state could be send to a fun called
'parse_bidi' that should be implemented by bidirectional plugins.

something like (for Jabber):

ts_jabber:parse_bidi(Data, State)

You can send a packet back to the server in this function, or the fun could
return something like {{data, Response}, NewState}

I'll try to implement something like that in the svn
